True education seeks, then, to make men and women not only good mathematicians, proficient linguists, profound scientists, or brilliant literary lights, but also honest men, combined with virtue, temperance, and brotherly love – men and women who prize truth, justice, wisdom, benevolence, and self-control as the choicest acquisitions of a successful life-David O. McKay

Saute onion in a little butter until it becomes transparent and soft. In a crock pot* add chicken, chicken broth, sauteed onion, chili powder, garlic, and salt & pepper. Cook on low for about 8 hours (or high for 3-4) adding more broth if needed (you don't want it to cook out completely). Remove chicken from crock pot and shred, then return to crock pot and simmer another 5 min. Drain out some of the juices (but not all of it... keep about 1/4 c.) and add honey and lime. Place seasoned, shredded chicken in a Ziploc bag and seal tightly, pressing out as much air as you can. Marinate at least 30-40 minutes.. longer if you can (I did about an hour). While chicken is marinating spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray, then pour about 1/2 c. of enchilada sauce over the bottom. Fill tortillas with chicken mixture (don't throw out the marinade.. you will use it for the sauce) and shredded cheese, saving about 1 c. of cheese to sprinkle on top of enchiladas. Mix the remaining enchilada sauce with heavy cream and leftover marinade. Pour sauce on top of the enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes until brown and crispy on top. Serve hot and top with your favorite enchilada toppings.

*If you don't have a crock-pot, just boil chicken in the same ingredients in a large pot with a little extra chicken broth until cooked through and can shred.

About our Family

We live in Maryland in the country and we love it! We have 9 children. We have built our family through birth and through adoption and are so thrilled at the 9 blessings God has given us. We are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Both Michael and Stephanie served missions for the church when they were young adults. Michael served 24 months in Venezuela, and Stephanie 18 months in Chile. Both Michael and Stephanie graduated from Brigham Young University, Michael in engineering and Stephanie in Family and Community History (genealogy). Michael continued his studies at Johns Hopkins where he earned a Masters in Computer Science. Michael currently works for the Department of Defense and Stephanie is a full time mom who also enjoys volunteering at Social Services on the Citizens Review board for Children which reviews cases of children in foster care.
Our kids are everything to us and we can't imagine life without them! Donald lives in Independence, Missouri, both Brianna and Christina live in Provo, Utah. Jadon, Linda, Brandon, Dallin, Billy and Ammon are still all at home.
